Customer Service Phone Professionals October 2023 Training Course

Have your employees ever been taught professional call-handling skills by customer service experts?

Most people working in a customer service role have just ‘learnt on the job’, so the October 2023 Customer Service Phone Professionals training course is designed to provide your employees with advanced customer service skills to deliver superior phone experiences day after day, call after call.

This course isn’t just basic platitudes like ‘smile’ when you are on a call. This course has been developed and refined over three decades and leverages the insights and assessment of more than 50,000 phone calls to ensure it delivers more than just theory; it delivers results!

Delivered over 3 x 3-hour sessions (for a total of 9 hours of training) by an industry professional, we’ll teach your employees a structured yet natural approach (no scripts!) that is aligned to 18 core competencies that are proven to improve customer satisfaction no matter how you measure it, i.e. First Contact Resolution, Customer Satisfaction, Net Promoter Score, Call Quality, Employee Engagement or just happier customers!

Your staff will be coached to progressively learn, build and apply new habits and skills that will transform their psychology and performance and encourage your employees to be themselves, resulting in improved engagement, increased efficiency and increased effectiveness on every customer interaction.

Unlock the superstars in your team and empower them with premium call-handling skills that will assist them in dealing with any inbound enquiry or customer type for any industry, product or service!

9 hours of training delivered over 3 x 3-Hour Sessions 

The Customer Service Phone Professional public course is a 9-hour course spaced out over 3 x 3-hour sessions, enabling students to learn and apply their new skills in between sessions and minimise the impact of off-phone learning.

Private courses can also be delivered (just for your employees) that enable greater flexibility with the course dates, times and duration (e.g. we could deliver it over 2 x 4.5-hour sessions or a single full-day session) – contact us for further information.
